What kind of plate boundary does subduction take place at?
A convergent plate boundary. a piece of continental crust and a piece of oceanic crust meeting at a convergent boundary.
Were does subduction take place?
Subduction occurs when an oceanic plate slides under a continental plate. When the oceanic plate does this, it descends into the mantle, and the place where the subduction begins forms a deep-ocean trench.
Does a subduction occur in a convergent boundary?
Subduction is when one of the plates is forced down beneath the other plate at the convergent boundary.
What is it called when one plate is pushed under another plate as the collide?
subduction boundary!!!
Which convergent boundaries do not have a subduction zone?
A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.
What kind of plate boundary does subduction take place at?
A convergent plate boundary. a piece of continental crust and a piece of oceanic crust meeting at a convergent boundary.
Where does Subduction take place on the ocean floor?
Subduction of the ocean floor takes place at trenches.
Were does subduction take place?
Subduction occurs when an oceanic plate slides under a continental plate. When the oceanic plate does this, it descends into the mantle, and the place where the subduction begins forms a deep-ocean trench.
Does subduction happen at a plate boundary?
Subduction is the process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate.
Does a subduction occur in a convergent boundary?
Subduction is when one of the plates is forced down beneath the other plate at the convergent boundary.
Do subduction take place when two oceanic crust meet?
No subduction doesn't take place when two oceanic crust meet. When two oceanic crusts meet, it is called a divergent boundary. Crustal features vary such as one like mid-ocean rdges. Subducting takes place when an OCEANIC and CONTINENTAL plate meet not when two oceanic plates meet.
What is it called when one plate is pushed under another plate as the collide?
subduction boundary!!!
Which convergent boundaries do not have a subduction zone?
A continent to continent convergent boundary does not have a subduction zone.
What is formed at each type of boundary?
subduction
What plate boundary melts crust?
Subduction.
What type of boundary can create a trench?
"subduction"
Where is the place where older crust is destroyed because two plates converge?
A destructive plate boundary (usually a subduction zone).
